Skipton Primary School, a small rural school, is located in the small township of Skipton in the Western District of Victoria, 55 kilometres southwest of Ballarat and 165 kilometres from Melbourne. Agriculture is the main source of employment for local families with approximately half of Skipton’s student population living on farms. Our current student enrolment is 72 students.
Skipton was one of the very first schools to receive Performance and Development Culture (P&D Culture) accreditation in 2005 and became a P&D Culture Reference School, thereby enabling Skipton’s teachers to assist other schools throughout Victoria in implementing the initiative.
